9/10
Outstanding Effort from First Time Director

Warning: Spoilers
Irish TV broke new ground in 2010 thanks to the writings of Stuart Carolan on RTE Love/Hate. Through the writings of Carolon and performances of Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, Killian Scott Irish television had entered a new era.

That is how it feels when you watch Simon Dixon's script unfold here through the performances of Brian Gleeson and Damien Molony. My initial thoughts when watching it last night was like tragic Shakespeare play unfolding before me with a powerful performance by Brian Gleeson.He is his father's son when it comes to acting talent, simply brilliant.

If it I had one criticism it would be the pace of how Dixon concludes the story. But outside of that cinematography captures the landscape beautifully, lighting and stunt coordination are also excellently executed.

It would be unheard of before Love/Hate for an Irish co-production to attempt such a film.

Well done to Simon Dixon and the team, looking forward to watching this space
